Application

Latex beads, amine-modified polystyrene, fluorescent blue has been used:as inert beads to study the role of autophagy proteins in LC3-associated phagosome (LAP) maturationin the culturing of peritoneal cells for phagocytic latex bead assay ex vivoin the preparation of LAP stimuli coated beads

Biochem/physiol Actions

Polystyrene latex beads can be used to create latex agglutination systems. Polystyrene latex beads have been used to study the transmission of Mycobacterium leprae, the causative pathogen of leprosy, as well as to develop a method for mass screening for both pulmonary and extrapulmonary tuberculosis.
